By trading Johansson, Capitals clear $4,583,333 in cap space.

Good pickup for the devils, at that price.

And there's something giving after the Kuznetsov signing. Roster is only 14 now, but adding 8-9 players w/~$9M in space is more do-able than 7-8 w/<$5M in space.

For Jersey, they still need to add almost another $1M just to reach the floor. But their roster is only 15 players as well, so that will take care of itself.

So the Devils still have their own picks if they want to offer sheet Draisitl to reunite him with Hall.

Didn't have to give up much for a 45-60 point centerman.

He had a very comparable year to Kuznetsov. This is a great trade for the Devils. I'd love if the Flames could've gotten Johansson at this price.

The Capitals probably weren't prepared to wait until the Flames might have a 2nd round pick again.

Bargain. I think he played mostly on the third line (but 1st PP) and racked up a decent number of pts

Don't understand why Vegas isn't in on any of these deals for picks. They only have a gazillion of them.

It's been a good summer for the Devils. Still lots of work to do with that roster but Johansson is only 26 so he can be part of their current core going forward.
